    mom_e_bizcut replied to aap2020's topic in General Nursing

    True because no face to face meaning oncoming nurse may not be able to ask questions which was feared to create gaps in continuity, also they moved toward bedside report for some time and also...

    New Grad Needs Advice - Hostile Work Environment

    mom_e_bizcut replied to aap2020's topic in General Nursing

    Hmmm...back in day I worked a few places that used a “taped report”. The idea with this was it would leave a nurse available to tend to any patient or staff needs instead of no nurses available....

    Is it reasonable for Nurses to be fired who "ran away" from work during the pandemic?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Because it was a high profile event and they're all about appearances. Her arrest I think or I hope will be dropped down or completely once the smoke clears, then they can pay her

    Yes, Employer Can Require Covid Vaccine

    mom_e_bizcut replied to TheMoonisMyLantern's topic in Disaster Preparation

    NO NO NO, Just stop googling. You'll find every scary thing that could possibly be associated with the vaccine and is often half truth or blown way out of proportion! You can find stories and evidence...

    Yes, Employer Can Require Covid Vaccine

    mom_e_bizcut replied to TheMoonisMyLantern's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I hear what you're saying when it comes to the mandate, that’s an awful lot of control for any entity to have over your life and body. The schools mandate our kids though and I agree with that, but...

    Struggling! LPN School

    mom_e_bizcut replied to Justtrynagetby's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    A&P was my favorite, I finished with a grade of 103%. My teacher drew big pictures on the board, sounds weird but it helped so much. It's been like 26 years and I can still draw the digestive...

    mom_e_bizcut replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I realize there are many sides to consider and we don't everyone's situation. No I DON’T think we should corner the absentees under a spotlight asking sarcastically if they enjoyed their LONG...

    Is it reasonable for Nurses to be fired who "ran away" from work during the pandemic?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Just to be clear right off, I NEVER said that nurses were responsible for “starting” the problems. I understand that there's a completely separate conversation that can be had regarding the...

    Is it reasonable for Nurses to be fired who "ran away" from work during the pandemic?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There's a difference between taking off a reasonable amount of time for a legitimate reason then getting right back to it, and intentionally ducking out of a crisis situation and leaving your peers to...

    Case Study: It's a Lump, but is it Breast Cancer?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to SafetyNurse1968's topic in Critical Care

    How about the physical exam? Is the lump soft and pliable, can it be moved around? A mammogram will most certainly be ordered either way, but if the lump is hard and immovable it may be a more...

    Are you considering leaving the nursing profession due to hospital conditions and Covid-19?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to AnonymousSuper's topic in Disaster Preparation

    most nurses are "lifers" ...probably a big reason these companies can treat nurses as poorly as they do, they know how much has been invested in your career. I have no other skills to work in other...

    How do you address co workers that are not adhering to social distancing - then coming to work?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to foragreatergood's topic in Disaster Preparation

    most cities have shut down any bars or "eat in' areas of restaurants or cafes so I assume you mean socializing at a private residence? Which is allowed in small groups. Truthfully its probably needed...

    Crisis travel assignments for Covid-19?

    mom_e_bizcut replied to JDougRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    WOW! seems a little unfair considering the staff nurses that have already been beat down by this crisis. Understanding the need to have relief available and that travel nurses get paid more on a...

    It is nice to keep the insurance, but at least in my case, it's the cost that scares me. The times I've had the opportunity to use cobra the premiums were so high that I couldn't make it work...
